Variant Ab Variant D# Variant B Variant C# Variant E Anytime these chords are mentioned they are played as above, unless otherwise noted. All other chords are regular power chords. Introduction: Play chords Ab D# Ab C# B 2nd time play chords Ab D# Ab D# Verse:

F#     G#          A
I went down to the tracks 

B(reg)                  C#(reg)       G#
thinking what they might say to me.

F#       G#          A
But they just stared back

   B(reg)   C#(reg)             G#
broken, trainless and black as night.

Then play Ab verse: Climbed out onto my roof, so I'd be a poet in the night. Beat the walls of my room, I saw the big room that is this life. Chorus:

G#                       E(reg)
     This is my Condition,

E var.            during this part the bass plays:  E   G#   A   B
Naked and hysterical, reaching to grab a hand that I just slapped back at.

G# E(reg) This is my Condition E var. as above. Desperate, alone, without an excuse, tried to explain, Christ what's the use. At the end of the chorus the guitar does a hammer on repeatedly, on the 3rd string notes 8/9. Intro: Verse: Read and I felt so small, some words keep speaking when you close the book. Drank and just about smiled, then I remember us in that bed. Put my ear to the door, I just heard hot rods and gunshots and sirens. People kill me these days, they have keys in their eyes but they lock from the inside. Chorus: Outro:

play Ab then
3rd-|-----13/14----13----11--|

D# Continue this for A while then: Ab(reg) C#(reg) B(reg) A then repeat outro till he stops talking.
